host: vita was talking about the facts and her concerns about mitt romney. guest: you are dealing with the candidate who was governor of massachusetts, a fairly liberal state. when he left office, he had done what a lot of people wanted him to do. turning from massachusetts to running for president as a republican, he will have to change a lot of positions, so he did. it is worth noting it is not like he is constantly changing his positions every two weeks. he really has kind of changed them all and seems to be sticking with them. the inartful comments he made in des moines did not signal to make a change in position. he was saying what a huge number of conservatives have been whispering about. you are not supposed to say it, about the need to deal with the fiscal crisis before you do anything else. that was stupid of him to say that, but i do not think it reveals a particular change in position. it is the one most prevalent that i hear among conservatives, even social conservatives that realized most important thing, the most important social progress for p

i have to tell you, i talked to a senior romney advisor about this pew research center poll and they look at a couple things here. in relation to these polls. they are looking at the enthusiasm that is coming out at some of their campaign events. i can tell you, we have been at several of these campaign events over the last several days and they are getting some big turnouts, sometimes in excess of 10,000 people, and while yes, that may not be obama campaign numbers, those are good numbers for mitt romney. another thing that they're looking at, they are looking at undecided voters. they feel like undecided voters, because of that debate being viewed by so many millions of americans last week, that mitt romney was able to reach through the filter of the media as they like to call it, ann romney referred to it that way in an event in florida last week, and beyond those campaign ads, the very nasty campaign ads coming from the obama campaign to talk directly to the american people, and they feel like that's a factor as well. they are also looking at what they call persuadable voters, th

now that there is cable news 24/7 and a call phoney of talks, we have had the excerpt from governor romney's camp and we already had a prebuttal delivered to us from the president's camp, so it is the foreign policy offensive at a glance and before we even get the original speech. i just want to quote something the president's camp has set out fascinating. to date all mitt romney has offered is blustered platitudes. he shifted positions on every major foreign policy including intervening in libya which he was against before he was for. what i find fascinating about that, almost sounds like the attack on john kerry, the flip-flopping attack. is this something the president will be able to seize upon and try to use the same attack republicans did to democrats when john kerry was trying to become president that they can spin right back around? >> they would love to do that and the question is in the third and final presidential debate between the president and mitt romney, will the president really go on the offensive unlike the first debate? will he really go after mitt romney on some of these
